Maria Inna Esperanza is an architecture student studying in their country home, the Philippines, despite her parents' best effort to urge her into studying abroad. Naiisip rin niya ang kagandahan abroad pero mas gusto niyang makapagtapos sa lupang sinilangan, mag disenyo ng istraktura kung saan mas makapagbibigay serbisyo sa kababayan niya at higit sa lahat may pakiramdam siyang di niya maintindihan, na parang may humihila sakaniya na manatili dito. Things changed weeks before her 20th birthday, she began having weird detailed dreams that made her anxiety grew more and it did not help when her cousin Kyle made a bet she thinks is stupid but ended up doing it in exchange for Kyle to stop pestering her. Dito niya unang nakita si Kyran, nagkakilala at naging magkaibigan. Sa pag pasok ni Kyran sa buhay niya aminado siyang umiba ang ikot ng mundo niya. However, the weird detailed dreams did not stop and it seems that it's a story that bounds to continue, she began lucid dreaming. May panahon na pakiramdam niya may napupuntahan siya pero wala naman. Habang gumaganda ang samahan nila ni Kyran ay ganun din ang pagbabago ng mga gawi niya. Nagsimula siyang mahulog kay Kyran. Kasabay ng nararamdaman niya para kay Kyran ay ang pagtindi ng di niya maipaliwanag na deja Vu lalo pa ng malaman niyang nagpaplanong maghiwalay ang kaniyang mga magulang. Before she finally decided to admit her feelings for Kyran and after she has collected a good amount of courage to face him if he rejects, she uncovers the truth about the story she has been dreaming of all along. A story that ends tragically. She knew she wants to fix the ending, she did her best to gather information and find the man from 1780.

“Congratulations, Miss Santillan. You are six weeks pregnant.” Nanigas si Marga sa kinatatayuan niya habang nakatitig lang sa doktor. Bumaba ang paningin niya sa prenatal examination report. Napapikit siya at napahawak sa kaniyang tiyan. “B-Buntis ako…” mahinang sabi niya. Hindi niya maintindihan ang kaniyang nararamdaman. Mas nangibabaw pa rin ang takot sa kaniya na baka malaman ni Brandon ang tungkol sa kaniyang pagbubuntis. *** “Kinakabahan ka ba?” Binuhay ni Brandon ang makina ng sasakyan. “Kung palagi kang ganito sa tuwing kausap mo ako, iisipin ko talaga na buntis ka, Marga.” Napalunok ng maraming beses si Marga. Mas lalo lang siyang kinakabahan. Pinagpapawisan na rin siya kahit na malakas naman ang aircon. “Kung totoong buntis ako, ano ang gagawin mo?” Napakagat-labi siya pagkatapos niyang bitawan ang mga katagang ‘yon. “You will raise the child alone, Marga. Kahit isang piso ay wala kang makukuha sa akin.”

Bata pa lamang si Sam ay bukambibig na niya na si Vaughn ang lalaking kanyang magiging asawa — na kaibigan ng nakakatanda niyang kapatid. Kahit malaki ang agwat ng kanilang edad at nakakabatang kapatid lamang ang turing nito sa kanya. Madalas nga ay nagpa-practice na siya sa pagsusulat at idudugtong ang apelyido ni Vaughn na Lopez sa kanyang buong pangalan na Samantha Santos. Inspirasyon din niya ito sa kanyang pag-aaral para maipagmalaki siya nito. Samantalang ang binata ay may nobya sa katauhan ni Yvonne — childhood sweetheart ng binata. At nangako na pagkatapos ng sampung taon nito sa modelling career ay magpapakasal na silang dalawa at iiwanan ni Yvonne ang modelling para sa bubuuin nilang pamilya. Nang malaman iyon ni Sam ay labis nitong ininda ang balitang iyon — hindi kumain ng ilang araw, tumangis nang tumangis sa kanyang silid, napabayaan ang pag-aaral at naging sakitin. Hanggang sa isang araw ay makabuo siya ng plano — ang pikutin si Vaughn. Hindi naman siya nagtagumpay dahil nahulaan agad ng binata ang kanyang masamang balak. Sa kasamaang palad ay hindi natuloy ang kasal nila Vaughn at Yvonne. Sinamantala naman ni Samantha ang pagkakataon na ligawan si Vaughn. Wala siyang pakialam kung siya ang humabol sa binatang CEO. Walang nakapigil sa kanya kahit ultimo ang sariling pamilya dahil katwiran niya ay nasa tamang edad na siya at tapos na sa pag-aaral. Ngunit, tila naging bato na yata ang puso ng binatang Bilyonaryo dahil kahit anong panunuyo niya rito ay hindi talaga siya nito pinapansin. Igi-give up na ba niya ang pagmamahal kay Vaughn at ibabaling na lamang ang atensyon sa nakababatang kapatid nito na matagal nang may gusto sa kanya? O maghihintay pa rin siya na mapansin ni Vaughn kahit mayroon na ulit itong bagong nobya?

But now there was another man in the picture. Who will she choose now, the man she loved all her life or the person who was always there for her and loved her dearly.

On our seventh wedding anniversary, I was straddling my Mafia husband, Lucian, kissing him deeply. My fingers fumbled in the pocket of my expensive silk dress, searching for the pregnancy test I'd hidden there. I wanted to save the news of my unexpected pregnancy for the end of the evening. Lucian's right-hand man, Marco, asked with a suggestive smile in Italian: "Don, your new little canary, Sophia. How does she taste?" Lucian's mocking laughter vibrated through my chest, sending a chill down my spine. He replied, also in Italian: "Like an unripe peach. Fresh and tender." His hand was still caressing my waist, but his gaze was distant. "Just keep this between us. If my Donna finds out, I'm a dead man." His men chuckled knowingly, raising their glasses and swearing their silence. The warmth in my blood turned to ice, inch by inch. The one thing they didn’t know was that my grandmother was from Sicily, so I understood every word. I forced myself to remain calm, keeping the perfect smile of a Donna fixed in place, but the hand holding my champagne flute trembled. Instead of making a scene, I opened my phone, found the invitation I had received a few days ago for a private international medical research project, and tapped "Accept." In three days, I would disappear from Lucian's world completely.
